Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy Brave Exvius will shut down on October 30. The game was first launched in Japan in 2015 and then worldwide in 2016.
“Since Final Fantasy Brave Exvius launch on June 30, 2016, we’ve strived to provide an incredible and enjoyable gaming experience for our players every day that could exceed the day before,” Square Enix said in a statement. “However, we’ve come to the conclusion that it would be difficult to continue maintaining the app experience, and to therefore end the app service.”

The game has already been pulled from storefronts as well as bundles. Those who’ve already downloaded it can continue playing it until the shutdown date. In-game events that have been scheduled will also proceed normally.
As a partnership between Square Enix and developer Alim, this free-to-play Final Fantasy spin-off game is turn-based and combines elements from one of Alim’s previous games, Brave Frontier. Final Fantasy Brave Exvius has collaborated with several different titles from the mainline series, such as Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy VIII. It’s even had strange crossovers, including one with pop stars Ariana Grande and Katy Perry.
This isn’t the only Final Fantasy mobile game to end service this year. Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia was shut down in February.
